Paige

The news of my mom being dead traveled fast at school but the only person to show that they cared was Dylan, I was standing in front of my locker when I seen him walk over and stand next to me.

Dylan: hey how are you holding up?

Paige: I've had better days...

Dylan: I am sorry about your mom Paige, if you need anything let me know...

Paige: thanks Dylan...

I shut my locker door and looked to the ground and felt a few tears run down my cheek and I guess Dylan heard me sobbing because he pulled me close and comforted me, I felt him place his hand on the back of head and gently ran his fingers through my hair while I cried on his hoodie...

Paige: I feel like a crybaby...

Dylan: its okay for you to cry given the circumstances and besides what kind of friend would I be if I wasn't here for you in a sad time?

Paige: wait...you wanna be my friend?

Dylan: well yeah, not unless you don't want to be my friend...

Paige: of course I want to be your friend. I just thought that you and Samantha....I seen her hugging up to you and well--

Dylan: I don't like her one bit, I was just returning the flower pen she left on her desk and I guess she wanted to get back at you when she saw that you were looking so she decided to hug me.

Paige: that sounds like Samantha she has tried to get under my skin since the 7th grade...I don't know what I ever did to make her start hating me...

Dylan: have you tried talking to her about it? I'm sure she will tell you.

Paige: well no...she thinks I'm a freak show because of the way I look...she went as far as pouring a soda on me.

Dylan: oh yeah about that...I'm sorry she did that

Paige: I never got to thank you for that day...

Dylan: don't mention it, I just can't stand people like that and for what it's worth freak or not don't let anyone drag you down because you're not a freak in my eyes and if people want to judge you for the way you look than they need to look in the mirror because they aren't perfect and shouldn't try...

Paige: I really needed to hear that Dylan thanks and thank you for being my friend...

Dylan: you're welcome Paige...
